patchset for fgetgrent fgetpwent getspnam mallinfo sigpause and termios

patchset for fgetgrent fgetpwent getspnam mallinfo sigpause and termios

[Zeng Linggang]

Hello,

This patchset is for fgetgrent.3, fgetpwent.3, sigpause.3, termios.3,
getspnam.3 and mallinfo.3

1. fgetgrent.3 and fgetpwent.3:
   We have some discussions about these two functions, the Subject:
   "Re: question about markings of fgetgrent and fgetpwent"
   However, something about the copyright impeded the progress.
   I am sorry for that, if you are OK, please see these two patches below,
   I have added some "FIXME:" descriptions in them.

2. getspnam.3
   getspnam.3 is a little like fgetgrent.3 and fgetpwent.3, but there are not
   markings in glibc document. I use the function names for the identifiers like
   fgetgrent.3 and fgetpwent.3.

3. mallinfo.3
   Hope the descriptions about "const:mallopt" could explain clearly enough in
   the patch.

4. sigpause.3 and termios.3
   These two functions are safety in Linux kernel, the markings in glibc manual
   are more detailed. I also have added some "FIXME:" descriptions in them.


Thanks and best regards,
Zeng

[PATCH] fgetgrent.3: ATTRIBUTES: Note function that is not thread-safe

[Zeng Linggang]

The marking matches glibc marking.
marking of function in glibc is:
- fgetgrent: MT-Unsafe race:fgrent

ps: We think race:fgrent in glibc maybe hard for users to understand,
and have sent a patch to the GNU libc community for changing it to
race:fgetgrent, however, something about the copyright impeded the progress.
Here we mark it "race:fgetgrent", so there is a little different.

[PATCH] getspnam.3: ATTRIBUTES: Note functions that are/aren't thread-safe

[Zeng Linggang]

After research, We think
* getspnam(),
* getspent(),
* setspent(),
* endspent(),
* getspent_r(),
* fgetspent(),
* sgetspent(),
are not thread-safe. And
* putspent(),
* getspnam_r(),
* sgetspent_r(),
* lckpwdf(),
* ulckpwdf(),
* fgetspent_r(),
are thread-safe. But, there are not
markings of them in glibc document.
